I made a clean install of Vista Ultimate (also an upgrade from Vista Home
Premium).

I had some difficulties with missing drivers but sorted those out. A couple
of Intel drivers display popup windows at start up, each with a check box for
"Don't show this window again" or words to that effect. Startup stops until
I click "Run" for both.

I check the "Don't show me" boxes for these two apps but this is ineffective
and the two windows keep reappearing at startup.

Is this a Vista problem or do I need to consult with Intel on some registry
hack?

Any ideas you might be able to provide would be appreciated. Thank you.
